CVE-2022-21725: Division by zero in Tensorflow

February 10, 2022 (updated November 13, 2024)

The estimator for the cost of some convolution operations can be made to execute a division by 0:

import tensorflow as tf

@tf.function
def test():
y=tf.raw_ops.AvgPoolGrad(
orig_input_shape=[1,1,1,1],
grad=[[[[1.0],[1.0],[1.0]]],[[[2.0],[2.0],[2.0]]],[[[3.0],[3.0],[3.0]]]],
ksize=[1,1,1,1],
strides=[1,1,1,0],
padding='VALID',
data_format='NCHW')
return y

test()

The function fails to check that the stride argument is stricly positive:

int64_t GetOutputSize(const int64_t input, const int64_t filter,
const int64_t stride, const Padding& padding) {
// Logic for calculating output shape is from GetWindowedOutputSizeVerbose()
// function in third_party/tensorflow/core/framework/common_shape_fns.cc.
if (padding == Padding::VALID) {
return (input - filter + stride) / stride;
} else {  // SAME.
return (input + stride - 1) / stride;
}
}

Hence, the fix is to add a check for the stride argument to ensure it is valid.
